Anyone knows when the review embargo lift?

Probably together with the IMAX fan screenings on week of release Monday.

 

A +95% Rotten Tomatoes score coupled with fan screenings word of mouth will be like a NUKE.

 

$150M opening weekend

Already booked my ticket for the first IMAX screening available in English, on June 14. I don't care what other Snyder fans say, I'm excited to see my favorite Batman again (Ben Affleck) and the references to Man Of Steel.

I'm not going to tell you what to believe, but expectations like this are just setting up for disappointment.  We have enough data in hand now to confirm that the baseline GA level of interest is just far lower, and even with all things breaking right there's a limit to how much the needle can be moved in that last week for the OW

 

Better argument is for a solid but not spectacular opening, followed a continued, rolling effect from reviews/WOM that creates very good legs (along what looks to be a 3 week runway with only a weaker Indy in the path). Similar to GOTG3, or even Wonder Woman light

I respect the data but I find it hard to believe that a Flash movie (he's a Justice League member) with 2 Batmens and a lot of cameos will only open 20-30 million above Black Adam. 100 million sounds too low.

 

I remember that people said Black Adam will open slightly above Morbius based on data couple of weeks before release. But then the pre sales pace got better. The same can happen for The Flash.

People love Mario.  What are you looking at the 59% on RT (which still means nearly 60% of the people liked the movie)?   There are other metrics that clearly showed the Mario movie is beloved.  Don't try to play that game.  

 

As for Ezra Miller's issues, I'm not going to start picking and choosing on who I support and who I don't support.  There are people with issues ALL OVER Hollywood.  If you dig into any production there's going to be actors,  producers,  directors,  writers, etc. that have a past.  

 

That goes for all forms of entertainment.  I don't truly believe @PrinceRico cares about those issues.  He's not been in any other threads talking about other actors' issues. 

[Alexander]

At this point I'd absolutely take 100-110M OW, second weekend drop under 55% and 630M+ WW. But RIGHT NOW I think it's heading towards 75-85 OW, 200-230 DOM, under 480 WW.

You also have to factor in the drawing power of The Rock in helping to promote the film vs a main actor who is essentially locked in cave somewhere 

 

Even using the Black Adam trajectory from here doesn’t quite get to $100M OW, much less $150. There seems to be a consensus the product is good, audiences will be receptive, and there is a path for success … just not for a monster opening. That’s the reality, and whether you or anyone else chooses to accept it is out of my control

Black Adam was also like the first big movie since what, Thor? While here audiences have a lot of other options. But I did hope it would have a stronger start from pre-sales. But I have no doubt it while have a good run even if it doesn´t get that monster opening I thought it would.

That’s not true. You know what film killed DC. But just like the comics, a franchise can always pull off death and returns.

Brolin has talked extensively with his battle with alcoholism and the instance you plugged out of Wikipedia happened more than a decade ago. You could do better than just repeating info withput context 

 

Its not comparable at all with Miller who terrorized people as early as last year

Brolin is also a grown-ass man who should know better so it shouldn't matter whether his abuse was a decade ago??? He was still in his 40s at that point lol

You know the real answer. 
 

But luckily not all of dc, just DCEU. And that is almost done with now anyway. On to greener pastures.

Lol nobody saw Shazam 2 so how would kill anything 

[YSLDC]

Respectfully - and this is my opinion - all your agendas about DCEU will collapse come opening weekend when this movie opens huge.

Excel Sense is tingling here ala TRANSFORMERS 1, IRON MAN 1, STAR TREK, JURASSIC WORLD...

 

Large-scale crowd pleasing films ALWAYS trend upwards. ALWAYS. 

 

Nobody cares about the DCEU history if the film is good. The stench around DC was much greater when Wonder Woman opened to $100m in 2017 and Aquabro followed up with $1.2b

I'm not playing any games or using any metrics, it's a very mediocre movie for babies and far from good.

True!
I don't know, I feel like The Flash is gonna be something special
Wonder Woman 2017 was also tracking around 65M 3 weeks before it launched.
